I used the LUAS to travel to Tallaght in May 2008 not long before M&S opened to the public at Tallaght Cross (19 July 2008). I had lunch at Captain Americas which opened its doors in 2007 and with seating on two floors for over 200 people and was the largest of all the branches. According to Google Maps and Yelp the restaurant at Tallaght Cross is no longer operational.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In August 2013 MARKS & SPENCER announced that it will close four stores in Ireland with the loss of 180 jobs. The four stores were in Mullingar, Tallaght, Dun Laoghaire, and Naas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April 2020, with the parent company going into administration, it was announced that Debenhams Ireland stores\u2014which were already temporarily closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic\u2014would be permanently closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tallaght Cross East is a mixed use town centre development located beside the Luas Red Line and only a short distance from Dublin City Centre. Located in the heart of Tallaght, Ireland\u2019s third largest metropolitan area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
